Say Goodbye to The Crappiest Shoes Ever...


Au Revoir, You Pair of Soleless Bastards !!
Can you believe that I've been wearing these everyday for the past 8 months?? It's true, but as of today, they happily reside in my trash can. No wonder my back is always sore, and my ankles ache....
These shoes have been in my closet for about 2 1/2 years, and after I left Newsome, i thought they were going to be retired. Truth is, i haven't purchased a stitch of clothing in well over a year, but that ended today.. After I got out of watching 'W', I went to Kohl's and got new shoes, socks, a belt, a pair of khakis and some boxer briefs so my guys have some support again. My old ones looked like Swiss Cheese. Too much info?
I knew it was time for a new pair when I stepped on a screw, and it ended up in my instep. OUCH !!! So, now, my dogs are styling and profiling again - WHOOO !!! That, and I'm probably two inches taller now too. Down here, that helps.....

    Way to go Mike!!! Sounds like you also put yourself last on the shopping list. Us parents have a tendency to do that. Then we go when it is absolutly needed.

  2. I wish I could say that I did it out of an obligation to others (which may have been partially true), but mainly I was just broke...
